The Cleveland Cavaliers have had more success when they’ve been able to get out and run.

I’m not expecting the Cleveland Cavaliers to be a fast-paced team, in the overall sense, this season. Thus far, the Wine and Gold are 22nd in pace through five contests, which would seem to be about what I’d have expected coming into the season.

That’s probably fine for them, and we know that, even with Kevin Love sidelined, as of Tuesday for the next three to four weeks approximately due to a calf injury, after which he’ll be re-evaluated, Cleveland won’t be a top five team in pace.
